What Happened In the Previous Season?
Since Maou-Sama, Retry was an isekai anime, the story was based on transporting to another fantasy world. And the person transported was Akira Oono. He was a programmer who created the massively played ‘Infinity Game’.
However, he decided to shut off the game server and focus on his other projects. But when the clock hit midnight, Akira found himself in his own gaming world where he was incarnated as the Demon Lord of the game- Hakuto Kunai. He met Aku after a little while.
Aku was attacked by the demon Greole at the time Akira met her. So, he rescued her from that giant but kept wondering about both of them. Because he never created those characters for his game. He started thinking this might not be his game all along and kept searching for the mystery behind his transportation.
In his journey in the game, Hakuto took Aku as his ally to accompany him. And gradually many avatars joined his team. In this fantasy world, he was the demon lord. So, many people thought that he was the root for all evil doing. But in reality, he was a teenager trapped in the middle aged demon lord’s body.

However, Angel White kept asking his real identity and assumed that he might be an angel but had been disguised as a demon. Angel White promised to help him.
